Resolved: Hijacking threads should never be used as a reason for banning

[What_Exit]

So as your first thread wasn’t enough you started a second?

Why is a reversed suspension being used as a reason for a permanent banning?

UltraVires has been permanently banned. The first reason for the ban is that he was suspended for a comment made about outdoor mask-wearing during Dick Clarke’s Rocking New Year’s Eve. That suspension was reversed. I disagree with the banning because it removes from the SDMB a poster with an interesting perspective. Sometimes interesting people can be controversial. I’m happy to expand my viewpoint further, and debate the other warnings, which I think should be insufficient for a banning.…

An occasional hijacking alone will not be a reason to ban, but combined with other behaviors or a pattern of trolling via hijacks it will remain a reason to ban. Hijacking alone was not the reason UV was banned.
